Ingredients
  

  • 1 pizza dough
  • ½ cup pizza sauce
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup ricotta cheese
  • 3 tbsp hot honey drizzle
  • Black pepper to taste
  • Italian seasoning to taste

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).
  2. On a floured work surface, roll out the pizza dough. Transfer it onto a baking sheet or pizza stone.
  3. Spread pizza sauce over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
  4. Sprinkle mozzarella evenly across the pizza.
  5. Add dollops of your ricotta cheese around your pizza. Feel free to add any other desired toppings.
  6. Sprinkle black pepper and Italian seasoning to taste.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the crust is golden.
  8. Drizzle hot honey over your pizza.
  9. Let the pizza cool slightly, then slice and enjoy!

Notes

  • Add Italian seasoning to the sauce for more flavor depth. Sprinkle fresh basil or crushed red pepper flakes after baking for a fresh finish.
  • Drizzle just before serving to keep the flavor vibrant. Adjust the quantity to your spice tolerance.
  • Pre-measure your ingredients for quick assembly. Pizza dough and sauce can be made ahead and refrigerated.
